January
I started working on full-body workouts with kettle bells, box jumps and P90X. Being a cyclist makes you one dimensional. It really paid off and made me more well-rounded and stronger on the bike.
February
A great trip to the place we both love, Breckenridge, Colorado. With the move to Portland we decided to rent our condo out for the year. Along with a winter trip we went to Nama's by the Ocean in Florida. Along with finishing off my 1/2 sleeve.
March
A great trip to the interact event of the year SXSW. It's an amazing place to be for social media geeks. Also a birthday for Peggy.
April
We headed back to Breckenridge for snowboarding and the Imperial Challenge.
I wrote an article on How to Effectively Use Social Media in Regulated Industries
May
I decided to buy a sports bike and go to motorcycle racing school. Triathlon season started and my parents came for a visit....and my 42nd birthday.
June
June was the big month where I gave my notice at Risdall Marketing group and accepted a job with Webtrends. It was a touch decision, but a great career move. Peggy ran a 1/2 marathon. Bike racing was in full swing with crit racing. We took our annual memorial day trip to Mantrap Lodge.
July
I started to commute to Portland for work. I would head there every other week for 4 days and stay in a condo downtown. Peggy came for a great weekend in Bend and a trip to the Coast.
August
Built up the new Colnago for cyclocross season, packed the house in MN and soaked in some final memories of Minnesota and new memories in Portland.
September
Cyclocross season started..we moved across country and I finished 2nd in the largest dualthlon in the world. It was great to finally have the family together again after commuting since July. We went to NY for a few days and my parents came through Portland to spend some time with us in our new home.
